The Iliad of Homer

The Iliad of Homer

Acclaimed translator Robert Fagles captures the poetry and power of Homer's "Iliad," the astonishing tale of the Trojan war and rage of Achilles that is one of the foundations of western literature. This 1990 version has been much praised for its expressiveness and clarity. A talented and adventurous writer, Fagles has just completed a lively new translation of the Odyssey, the "sequel" to the Iliad focusing on Odysseus' ten-year adventure home.  (GRE20, $15.00)
